It's Your Showtime!!!!!!

■ What is the BiG-i Art Project?
Art has the power to connect people. The BiG-i Art Project leverages this power to encourage communication between people, both with and without disabilities, and to promote the sharing of inspiring experiences and joys. To help people with disabilities discover and fulfill their potential, the BiG-i Art Project is conducted with the following three objectives:
- To offer people with disabilities opportunities to engage in artistic activities

- To support and publicize the activities of artists with disabilities
